Two-Bit and I didn't really say anything that night. We couldn't really sleep, since we were both mulling over the conversation we had yesterday.

After everything that happened, Two broke the silence and said, "In the end, I'll never forget the pleasure I had with you. If you stay, I'll treat you like a queen. We could be happy forever. But, if we have to say goodbye, then I'll just be waiting for you, even though you'd never come back. I'll tell everyone the story of our short and sweet love."
"I'd do the same. You'll be my king. Or...I'll come home and watch Mickey and think about you everyday."

"Let's just take our mind off of this for a while. It's driving me nuts. Let's go to the The Dingo!" Two proposed.

"Sure! But...shouldn't we warn the rest of the gang about...the sad truth?"

"I feel like if we tell 'em now, we'll all suffer less."

And so we went to The Dingo that night with the gang.
